I'd need some more information before I could suggest anything. Are you selling items as lots? Or are you just storing the items in sections called lots? Or indeed are you performing some other task with the lots?

I have inbound finished goods that I would like to apply a lot number for distribution only and then inbound raw material that will be processed and I will need to apply lot numbrs to for recall purposes and proper stock rotation. Thanks for the initial reply.

It depends on how you want to record the information. If it applies to single items then you can create a new item with the lot number. If it applies to several items that are of the same type then I'd suggest using the Item Tracking feature.

Forgive for asking simplistic questions. The item tracking seems to be the way to go. So if I got it, as an item comes in I will assign the unique tracking number each time a raw material comes in. The raw material number will be accessed by the database of new items I create.

The next avenue I want to do is to tie this into the barcoding option. How do I create the barcode for my product?
